Since opening in 2018, Television Centre has opened to the public while continuing to be a place of work, with the BBC still making programmes within the refurbished studios. The development’s external spaces have become the backdrop for some of the nation’s most-watched and loved television shows, including Strictly Come Dancing and Top Gear. Shows are now undertaken in the open-air, overlooked by residential apartments and watched by the general public.
West Green Place is the regeneration of what was council-owned brownfield land into a new residential street that re-provides community uses, opens a new access to Downhills Park and completes the existing Victorian street pattern that surrounds the site. 126 homes are organised along a new tree lined street with a generous public realm and entrance square forming the main point of arrival from the north.
